Features
The Division of Sustainable Energy and Environmental Engineering conducts an education and research system that has the following unique and highly practical features.
Program System and Development to Double Major
 |
The graduate school consists of the following 5 programs:
- Sustainable Environmental Design
- Environmental System
- Circulatory Material and Resources
- Quantum and Energy
- Sustainable Energy
We request students to select a sub-program or more in addition to their specialized program and exert the double-major feature.
Through the double-major system, we aim to develop human resources that have a wide variety of knowledge across environment and energy.
The "Environmental Risk Management" program for developing human resources can be also learned through the graduate school's lecture. However, this special program is available only as a sub-course for the moment.
Assurance of Technical Skills Targeted at Qualificaion
We will introduce qualifications for these seven programs so as to ensure the development of human resources such as researchers, engineers, administrative staff and consultants that can exert leaderships domestically and internationally.
First, the Division promotes a qualification for "Environmental Risk Managers" for which students must master subjects designated under the human resources program for environmental risk management.
In addition, it provides education that is aimed at qualification of "Reactor Chief Engineer" in order to develop engineers related to nuclear energy, one of basic energy constituents in our country.
Educational Curriculum Aimed at Developing Highly Practical Human Resources
We aim to provide techniques and knowledge that are practical and useful in the real world with an effective combination of drills, off-campus internships, practical training, etc.
The Division actively promotes education to form entrepreneurs and make efforts to develop human resources that can create new industries in collaboration with the Division of Business Engineering.
In addition, we promote the admission of workers with doctorates to assume education for businesspersons.
Furthermore, the "Human Resources Program for Environmental Risk Management" forms a curriculum that assigns the highest priority to that students develop skills for highly practical environmental risk management through participation in lectures and drills given by domestic and international experts with practical experiences. Additionally, we establish an external evaluation institution whose secretariat is assumed by the Society for Risk Analysis, Japan-Section, and aim to certify those who completed this course as an "Environmental Risk Manager."
International Cooperation
In order to promote the development of environment and energy engineering in Asia and other countries, we actively receive students from overseas, establish the way of receiving them, help them to conduct learning and research, aid them to advance to the secondary stage of doctor course, follow up with the students who took degrees and give active support to the students that returned to their home countries or got employed.
With the aim of performing these activities, we are conceiving the creation of local joint research centers in the region of Asia.
